Our programs en français

Did you know that Kootenay Co-op Radio airs programs entirely in the French language? That's right!
 
Méli Mélo, which broadcasts Fridays at 10am, features all sorts of music from novelties, to retro melodies. And Pardon My French, which broadcasts on Wednesdays at 4pm, offers a range of Canadian music for all ages. --Both of these fantastic KCR originals are re-broadcasted on Radio Victoria!
 
This photograph was taken on June 25th at Franco Fête, an event organized by AFKO to celebrate the diversity of French speakers in Nelson! (Over 260 people turned up!!)
